For the many of you who are complaining that you "gave" us the game....or you lost it, Denver didn't win it......Perhaps, all of your opponents on your 10-0 playoff run could have said the same thing about YOU.

In Brady's 10-0 playoff run, the Patriots had 27 takeaways, to 6 giveaways.....a margin of +21.....and a ratio of 4.5 to 1.....does this ratio sound familiar? It should.....Denver's ratio on Saturday night was 5 to 1.

Now suppose that all of those opponents of yours were crying that "The Patriots didn't win, WE LOST".....or "We GAVE the Patriots the game"....

You know what? You'd be laughing your arses off, just like we are now......

YOU'RE A BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES WITH SHORT TERM MEMORIES......

One other note.....on your Superbowl runs, you won with practically no running game (in the first 2), good defense, and forcing turnovers......kinda like how we beat you, huh? So you shut down our running game.....we adjusted and still found a way to overcome it.....good teams adapt.

So why the complaining?

Interesting. Points are points, no matter how they get tallied on the scoreboard. The goal is to get more points than the other team....simple formula, simple solution to victory...what the experts need to understand is, there is no shame in losing. Sometimes, the "other" team just outplays the favorite by scoring more points, no matter in what matter they were put up on the scoreboard...dman

the complaining is a bit short sighted.
as you correctly posted t/o are how the pats won in the playoffs, it is how just about all teams win in the playoffs.
if you were to look at past SB runs you would find that of all SB winners and prolly SB loser they won the t/o battle in the playoffs.
blaming t/os is loser talk, ignore it.
the better team won.

Look for the rules committee this off season to put in place a new scoring system.If you gain more yards than the opposing team then you get 15 extra points.Hilarious! Why 15 u ask?27-13 ,You figure it out.
